Re, Reunion 10 upgrade 10-0-6. When I open the dmg it shows a window:
Installing Reunion 10
To install Reunion 10
drag this icon (the old Cut-peg ;-0) into this Folder, named Applications, with a black arrow in the bottom left hand corner.
Then click the dmg icon and choose file eject.

I can't really help you with this as I started out with Reunion 10 so didn't do an upgrade. I'll let someone else guide you on any upgrade pitfalls to look out for.

Re: Source Person

I have, through memory recall and much searching through the Reunion User Manual, found how to make my family tree averrable (this miss-spelling not picked up by writing tools - so it must be correct, or it's drunk) to all and sundry. However there are two outstanding queries.

1) If I make a Web Card Report and include movies and songs, that play in my

Re: Source Person

Had to look that one up Bob - I never came across it before in 52 years living in the UK. Donnybrook is a suburb of Dublin where a fair was held until the 1850's - so perhaps its an irish expression.

Looked it up and that is correct. See attachment.

[OT] Cluttered Desktop, was Re: Source Person

Steve Hill: may I suggest you make aliases of your Reunion program and your Family File to place on your desktop.

Hi,

I'm curious about items on the Desktop slowing things down. It so happens that I keep the Reunion icon in my Dock, but my Desktop has always been a slum, as in real life for if it is out of sight it is out of mind.

I learned at my mother's knew that a messy Desktop slows a Mac down, but have since been assured that this is not the case.

Any other views?

It depends..... If you are still running an old PowerPC chipped Mac or a very early Intel chipped Mac, the old advice is good advice. However, in recent years, the Macs have gotten so powerful that having a junky desktop is not much of a performance issue.

Re: Source Person

I don't think you can blame Apple if you go your own way. I only have ONE Applications folder as provided by Apple.

I have three external 1TB hard disks: iPhoto Lib (approx 30,000 pics), Family Tree photographs by family and country, movies, inDesgn files, Artwork, Docs, Backup files, etc. each HD seems to have its own App folder.

Re: I finally made a burnt disc of the Family Tree, tested it on a PC, and all is fine - up, running and posted.

I'm now trying to find how to have the person the Burnt disc will go to identified as the Source person on the disc. Having fun

Cheers, Happy Christmas one and all.
